Epubs are just zip files with all files for the ereader wrapped up in the zip archive. And with calibre, epub can be converted to just about everything else.

Seconded; I always use EPUB as a base format, even if the book is not delivered as such. If I get a book at Amazon, it comes in AZW3 or MOBI. I either unpack it or convert it into an EPUB (storing the original AZW3 outside calibre after importing it), edit it the way I like it, and then reconvert it back to AZW3, keeping the EPUB as well.
I do the same with LIT files, which is the base format of the old(er) Baen CD's.
Use EPUBs. Even try to convert the DOC-files. With the PDF's, you're basically **&#$. They'll just have to stay PDF, as they don't convert well to any other format.
